Automated Dustbin

Abstract

The designing and manufacture of garbage cleaning and disposing offthe garbage to its designated position is presented in this report. Automation has become a domain that had already propagated its tendrils absolutely every infrastructure industry and has now advanced further into sector of healthcare. The focus of this research is to design a robot which can dump the garbage filled inside the dustbin to the position where the container is placed. The Automated Dustbin uses a line following algorithm to measure the way, which includes 6 infrared proximity sensors out ofwhich, two IR sensors are used to sense the path. Also, it utilizes two ultrasonic sensors, one to detect the level of garbage in the dustbin and other to detect the obstacle if comes on the way ofLFR dustbin. across This indicates that it provides a clear and reliable method while minimizing production cost. The Arduino Mega 2560 had been used to build this robot, and the Arduino IDE was utilized to program it. General public will be able to use the dustbin via an app that will be connected directly to the Automated Dustbin. The interfacing ofthe app and Arduino will be done with the help ofBluetooth Module.
